Free Easter Films and Resources for Churches in the UK

Yes. Jesus Film Project provides several Easter films and series completely free for church use. These include My Last Day (a short animated film telling the Easter story through the eyes of a thief crucified beside Jesus), the Holy Week daily video series, and the full JESUS Film — all free to stream and screen with no licence required.

Holy Week is an eight-episode series of short daily videos walking through the events from Palm Sunday to Holy Saturday. Each episode focuses on one day or event, helping viewers slow down and engage with the Easter story. It works well for personal devotion or as a daily resource for church congregations during the week leading up to Easter.

My Last Day is a short animated film that tells the Easter story from an unexpected angle — the perspective of one of the thieves crucified alongside Jesus. It is widely used with youth groups and young adults because the format is accessible and the storytelling is emotionally powerful. The film is free to screen and works well at Easter events, youth group meetings, and outreach evenings.

Yes. The JESUS Film is the most-watched Christian film in history, based on the Gospel of Luke, and is free to screen at church services, Easter events, and community outreach. The full film is available in 62 short clips, so you can show individual scenes — such as the crucifixion or resurrection — within a service, or screen the complete two-hour film as a special event.

Jesus Film Project offers children's animated content that presents the Easter story in an age-appropriate way. These resources work well for Sunday school, family services, and Easter holiday clubs. All content is free to use and does not require sign-up or registration.

No. All films and series on this platform are free for ministry use including church services, small groups, outreach events, and youth programmes. There are no licence fees and no registration required to watch or screen the content.

A simple approach is to use the Holy Week series as daily devotionals — one episode per day from Palm Sunday to Holy Saturday. On Good Friday, screen My Last Day at a youth or all-age service. On Easter Sunday, use the resurrection scenes from the JESUS Film as part of the service. Everything is free, short enough to fit within a service, and requires no technical setup beyond an internet connection and a screen.

All Easter content is available through this platform. Visit the Easter resources page to see the Holy Week series, My Last Day, the JESUS Film, and children's content — all in one place, all free.
